‘World of Color – Season of Light’ Is Glowing Into Disney California Adventure Park November 10

“Walt Disney’s Wonderful World of Color” made its television debut 55
years ago this week, bringing the wonder of full-color programming to
people across the country and introducing the world to my personal
favorite character, Professor Ludwig Von Drake. That landmark show
served as the inspiration behind the original “World of Color” when it
debuted at Disney California Adventure park back in 2010. Much like the
TV anthology series itself, “World of Color” has been presented in a
number of versions and variations over the years, and for the 2016
holiday season, we’re celebrating the warmth and wonder of the holidays
with a sparkling new winter fantasy.
“World of Color – Season of Light” combines classic holiday songs with memorable moments from treasured Disney
animated films to create an experience that wraps you in the warm glow
of holiday magic. From its mesmerizing start to its stunningly beautiful
finale, “World of Color – Season of Light” illuminates the night and
weaves together an emotional tapestry that will fill your heart with the
spirit of the season.

The show begins with the last leaves of fall giving way to the arrival of winter, as Mickey
and his pals decorate their homes for Christmas. Themes of love, home
and family run throughout “World of Color – Season of Light,” with
special appearances by Lady and Tramp, Andy’s family from “Toy Story,” a “Mele Kalikimaka” with Stitch and his ‘Ohana and a “Feliz Navidad” from the Three Caballeros. At one point in the show, Goofy
goes all out in a spectacular ode to over-the-top holiday light
displays … until his ode turns to overload and everything short
circuits, leading to a “Blue Christmas” with Sadness from Disney•Pixar’s “Inside Out.”

Everything builds to a stunning grand finale, illuminating the lagoon
with the light of hope and filling our hearts with the spirit of peace,
joy and goodwill to all. “World of Color – Season of Light” debuts
November 10, 2016, at Disney California Adventure park and will be
presented nightly through January 8, 2017.
